News outlets recently confirmed that the rockstars made the drastic move after one of the members’ identities was doxxed. When writing this article, they have not addressed the incident publicly.

For those uninitiated, Sleep Token is a famed alternate metal, post-rock, and progressive metal band. They garnered massive traction after releasing their debut EP, One, in 2016. Since then, they have released numerous albums, including Take Me Back to Eden, This Place Will Become Your Tomb, and Sundowing.

Recently, the band removed all their Instagram posts and left an ominous bio on the social networking site: "Nothing lasts forever.”
According to Loudwire, a netizen alleged that the birth certificate of one of the band members, III, was leaked online. Not only did III deactivate their page, but the band proceeded to remove all their posts in support. Other members’ Instagram pages remain as they were.
